This was such a wonderful reading that I had to go look up this olympian star with impressive track and field records. She is popularly referred to as the "carribean storm" and I think that's a powerful way of describing someone who has made impact.
Women like Ana inspire! They set the precedent for younger ones who need to hear real stories of perseverance to move forward in their own lives, and I'm glad her life had lessons for you too. I hope you keep it all close to your heart, always.
I also wish for the entire world to embrace vulnerability as a strength because that will help our society produce more emotionally balanced adults. Fingers crossed. Thank you for writing with us. Have a lovely week ahead!
PS: I did respond a few days back, but wasn't quick to realize Ecency didn't reflect that due to my network issues, I believe. My apologies. All the same, I'm happy you made a beautiful post that couldn't be forgotten.🙂
Thank you so much for your kind words
It truly made me happy to know that the post inspired you to learn more about Ana Fidelia. In Cuba, many of us grew up hearing her story not only because of her athletic achievements, but because of the strength with which she managed to rise again after such difficult moments. I think that was exactly what impacted me the most about her.
I also deeply agree with what you said about vulnerability. Sometimes society teaches us to hide too much of what we feel in order to appear strong, and in the end that often leaves emotionally exhausted people behind. Hopefully, little by little, we can learn to see sensitivity and emotional honesty as something valuable rather than a weakness.
And please don’t worry about the delayed reply 😊 Ecency sometimes surprises all of us with those things. In fact, I’m really glad you came back because your comment truly meant a lot to me.
Thank you again for reading so carefully and for your beautiful words 🌷
I wish you a wonderful week as well.
Aren’t you the kindest with words?! These may have been shared a week ago but reading your response makes me smile a lot. I’m happy you appreciate my comment and desire to learn about such an incredible woman. You’re also awesome for doing your best in this ever demanding world. I truly wish you all the best. Till next time, xoxo.❤️
Thank you so much for your beautiful words
Honestly, it makes me really happy that our conversation continued leaving something positive even after several days. Sometimes we write without imagining how much a topic can connect with other people, and comments like yours make it all feel truly worthwhile.
I also wish you many beautiful things and a lot of peace for the days ahead ❤️
Thank you, sis. My pleasure too.🤗
